Boycott United Airlines

United Airlines slogan is "Fly the Friendly Skies." The reality is a glimpse into brutality of America's future.

You've probably seen the video and read the story. United had overbooked a flight and "randomly" picked an Asian looking gentleman to be removed and replaced by someone United deemed more important. When, as any American would, he refused to be bullied by the airline they had him beaten senseless and dragged from the plane by white police officers.

The fact that the man was a respected physician returning to his hospital was of no consequence. United Airlines treated him as subhuman trash.

The people on the plane were aghast, but in 1933 the German people were upset by overt Nazi government violence against Jews. But, in time, they became inured to the brutality. With the Sessions Justice Department giving cover, Americans too will accept violence against people of color as the new normal.

United Airlines stock is up today on Wall Street, proving that America's moneyed elite think jackbooted thuggery is a sound business practice.
